sql injections

Hey guys m new to developing can i know how can i find sql injection errors from the script and fix them?

like i have source codes of many websites which include normal blogs to commerce sites i want to know how can i find where possible sql injection error could be by opening the php files in notepad or any other editor????

Also, to build on yodercm's comment your best bet is to use a database framework of some sort so that all your database code can be changed at a single location: if you have to check every single inputs on every page you create you will probably make mistakes at some point. If all your database logic is encapsulated in a few well designed classes however you will be able to have more control on security matters.

not really... if you want to rely on magic quotes you can turn them on while you work your way through each files (it's not a 100% foul's proof though but it is "automatic"). In the long run however I advise you to encapsulate your DB logic in a few classes and do the necessary security checks there:http://php.net/manual/en/security.magicquotes.php

if you want something 100% secure you will have to edit most of your pages anyway, especially if security was not taken into account during the development process. You might also want to look at PHP frameworks that comes with secure database classes

Capture your entire system, including the host, with patented disk imaging integrated with VMware VADP / Microsoft VSS and RCT. RTOs is as low as 15 seconds with Acronis Active Restore™. You can enjoy unlimited P2V/V2V migrations from any source (even from a different hypervisor)

If you want to examine source coe of blogs or other CMS systems, then it would perhaps be better to ask to corresponding programmers an community of the product. As you are novice programmer, do you really think you would find insecure code an experienced programmer has overlooked?

There are security fixes to most any software having some success and being used, no question, there never is 100% security anyway.

As yodercm initially said what is important is the flow of input into sql queries. Using filters as mentioned is one way, using parameterization is another one and you can of course also do both. Quotes are just one simple problem.

So what you'd need is a parser finding all code lines processing input. That's not easily automated. But code grows slowly, you only start with "a hell of files", if you base your code on an existing CMS or other system. If you start from scratch you can oversee where vulnaribilies are. And yes, you can oversee something, even in a team of developers. Security checks are typically done in unit tests with random input, also wrong input and of cause known injection attacks. So vulnerabilities are not only found by code analysis, but also by testing.

Open source has the advantage not only the bad but also the good hackers are analyzing code and reporting errors and security issues. It also initially asks more precaution by the developer, as the code is open source and can be analyzed of course. It's not a matter of how much code this is, on the other side there are also masses of people searching for vulnerabilities, so there is no security due to an error being buried in lots of code.

Last not least, there are good architecture patterns, liek MVC (model view controller), where a controller is taking in input, seeing what the request means, calling the model to retrieve data, providing that to a view needed to show the next page. In short. In this design pattern all input goes through one object and the coe to prevent injections is centralized and not scattered.

sql injection is top rated web Application attack these days. There are many insecure code over the net and also there are several ways to protect ASP.NET application from sql injection attacks. sql injection can occur when an application uses input to construct dynamic sql statements or when it uses stored procedures to connect to the database. Methods of sql injection exploitation are classified according to the DBMS type and exploitation conditions Vulnerable request can implement Insert, update, delete. It is possible to inject sql code into any part of sql request Blind sql injection Features of sql implementations used in various dbms. Successful sql injection attacks enable attackers to execute commands in an application's database and also take over the server.
my recommendation:
- Basically, make sure your web server is up-to-date with latest security fixes/patches.
- Make sure you have filter every user input and output as proper encoding like UTF-8.

- try tom imlement web application scanner , check this link http://trac.ush.it/ush/wiki/SecurityTools
- i use ex. watchfile now IBM aapscan tools http://www-01.ibm.com/software/rational/offerings/websecurity/ to scan all my web application

well i said me new i meant new in finding errors i know php and web development but m not good in finding errors are there any good tools to find web app errors free one ? like i make a local server and test them that way
